What Eloise Capital does

Eloise Capital is a privately held, boutique real estate development and advisory firm headquartered in Miami, Florida, founded by Jason Cotter as Managing Principal. The firm operates as a dual-role principal, advisor, and strategic partner serving developers, owners, and investors across hospitality, multi-family, residential, retail, casino, and mixed-use real estate, with an active project footprint spanning the United States, the Caribbean (Anguilla, Bahamas, St. Barth, Sint Maarten), and Latin America (Mexico, Colombia).

The firm's offering comprises five integrated service lines — Strategic Advisory, Development Services, Acquisition & Disposition, Portfolio Management, and Asset Management — covering the full real estate lifecycle from planning and conceptualization through underwriting, due diligence, transaction execution, and ongoing operational management. There is no proprietary technology platform disclosed; the value proposition rests on Cotter's two decades of hospitality real estate experience and a 'People First' philosophy rooted in his upbringing in iconic hotels including the St. Regis NYC, Waldorf Astoria, and Beverly Hilton.

Revenue is generated through professional services fees (advisory, development) and transaction/managed services fees (acquisition/disposition, asset and portfolio management), with pricing quoted on a per-engagement basis and not publicly disclosed. Distribution is direct and relationship-based, with no intermediaries, digital channels, or broad marketing activity. Notable projects include The Village (Dallas), Cap Jaluca (Belmond, Anguilla), Cheval Blanc (St. Barth), Eden Rock, The Raleigh (Miami Beach), Hyatt Regency Cartagena, and Banyan Tree Bimini. The firm has approximately 5 employees, no disclosed external funding, and no parent company.
